SELF PITY
(Margriet Eshuijs)
Margriet Eshuijs - 1978
Love and friendship slipped away
Hurting us every day
We didn't have any joy
I was just like a toy
And now, there we are apart
Breaking each other's heart
The tears that flow are not real
It's from self pity there is still
Emotion on a face, the hatred in in a soul
The lies are in our eyes
You and I, we had no plan
I tried as hard as I can
To show you that I was right
You don't have to hide
The truth ain't that hard at all
Face it and stand tall
These tears that flow are not real
It's from self pity there is still
Emotion on a face, the hatred in a soul
The lies are in our eyes
We've got no, we've got no right
Crying out of self pity
Crying out of self pity
(Instrumental Break)
It's from self pity there is still
Emotion on a face, the hatred in a soul
The lies are in our eyes
We've got no, we've got no right
Crying out of self pity
Crying out of self pity
We've got no, got no right
Crying out of self pity
Crying out of self pity
We've got no, we've got no, we've got no right
Crying out of self pity
Crying out of self pity
We've got no, we've got no, we've got no right
(Crying out of self pity)
Crying out of self pity
We just ain't got no right
